The commentators don't really know what they're talking about. He wasn't trying to be "fancy" or finish with "a flourish" at any point. And he didn't try to do anything flashy at all. He did make a mistake by slightly changing what he had been doing. But that was caused by anxiety... wanting to end the match before Park could rethink anything... and a certain over-confidence in his ability to draw Park into a quick double-hit to finish the match. That turned out to be a strategic error. But looking for a cheap quick double-hit before your opponent is fully prepared... is the opposite to trying to finish with a "flourish". By the time Park got back to 14-12 ...Imre had lost control of his own tactics... and unthinkingly retreated into a far too reactive defensive stance.
Feel so heartbroken for Imre. He is still the GOAT IMO
cap
They played the imperial march lmfao fencing is the best sport man
So glad somebody uploaded the full bout, I couldn't find it anywhere, thanks!
the comeback was crazy
Such a good match, I love Park but it breaks my heart for Imre
18:00 "he wants to finish on a flourish." And THERE was the problem....don't finish fancy...just finish.

I met Park a few months ago at my fencing club, signed my helmet 🔥
No way! Was it a club in Korea?! Or did he visit some international clubs?
As a Korean, I am still sad for Imre.
Probably the best bout
Thank you so much for posting this!!!!
any chance that you have the bouts from t32 to t8 as well?
Pls upload Geza Imre vs Grumier in semifinal
А какой тогда смысл если они друг друга колят?Я думал что суть как раз в том чтобы один не дал себя уколоть и таким образом выжить в бою!
Where is the bodywire?

I don't think that's his arm?! 🙈
Didn't his mother teach him not to run unmasked with an epee? lmao
